Whatch-a doing?

Alpine Village Family January 21st, 2009

I need a watch. Nothing fancy… although I’d love a fancy one like a Patek Philippe… but really I just need to know what time it is :) . It’s driving me crazy. Ever since I lost my old one - which I loved - I’ve been going nutty looking at my arm every time I want to make sure I’m not late LOL! I guess I need to go get another one though and stop complaining… it’s not like anyone is going to buy me a new one if I don’t…

I feel stout

Well here we are again… my pants - yes even my “fat pants” - are tight. I’ve become a walking, talking definition of what “muffin top” means as my pants not so gracefully pouff over the top of my pants LOL! …ack… not that funny really.

So, now what to do about it? I’ve tried not to eat so much but darnit I’m having a tough time with it. I’m thinking now of maybe trying natural weight loss supplements. We’ll see what works. I’ll keep you posted ;)

Aches and pains

Alpine Village Family January 8th, 2009

It’s funny but when I feel good I really tend to take it for granted. I know that sounds silly but when I have an ache I realize how lucky I was to feel good… know what I mean?

Similarly I feel bad for people who are in pain all the time. Like someone who is in pain just walking. Like someone who has arthritis - that would be really tough :(

What are your favourite low cal goodies?

When I have the sweets cravings hit I tend to go for some jube jubes “gummies” as my kids call them :). I’ll also have a small bag of Doritos for 250 calories if I’m feeling like I MUST have chips but man o man, the calories add up fast if I’m eating regular potato chips - so I tend to avoid even having them in my house LOL!

Is There Lingere After Kids?

Alpine Village Family January 5th, 2009

Do you have kids? After you had them did you have any interest in sex? I mean I think most moms take a break from that for a little while until we are more rested. Then we are back to ourselves BUT what about wearing sexy lingere? Do you bother? Or do you even feel sexy after having kids? It took me a while but I’m back to that sexy feeling… but then again, I’m also single so maybe that’s why…

Renos My Way

Alpine Village Family January 5th, 2009

I’ve been thinking doing some home renovations this year. I’m pretty sure I can learn how to do most things as long as something like heavy lifting isn’t involved :) I’m thinking all I need is a course or two at the local Home Depot and voila, I can install my own faucets. Not that I’m very picky, I just want a faucet that has a “squirty thing” LOL! :D
